Ode to My Brain


                                                   Oh, brain, my sincere, shining friend
                                                      You toil all day long, without end,
                                                    A store of thoughts, a hectic place,
                                                 With memories stowed in each space,
                                                  You spin and swirl to seize the world,
                                                   With your aid, feels and views unfurl,
                                                   You hum words to carve my verses,
                                                   As a sweet muse that converses
                                                    With me, when awake or asleep,
                                                    My loyal partner, true and deep.

How vital is our brain! When it begins playing tricks, our life itself will take another turn. When it loses its capacity to decode messages correctly, our life will go bizarre and we lose all balance. A wonderful tribute to your brain.... your great muse.
